A proposito di questo titolo

 The Daily Boost is a short, practical podcast for people who want their life and work to work better. I’m Scott Smith. For years, people have come to me with the same request: “Help me fix a few things and move forward.” That’s what the Daily Boost is designed for. Each episode is just a few minutes long. One idea you can use. One shift in perspective that helps you make better decisions, handle pressure more cleanly, and feel like you’re moving in the right direction again. No hype. No long theories. Just useful insight you can carry into your day. Most people who listen are building careers, businesses, or leadership roles. They’ve done a lot right — they just don’t want progress to come at the expense of everything else. Along with the short daily episodes, I also share longer weekly Deep Dives. That’s where we go further — connecting the dots between the changes you’re trying to make today and the bigger picture of where your life and work are heading. The Daily Boost is the starting point. It helps you fix what’s in front of you — and opens the door to building something that actually lasts. If you’re looking for clarity, traction, and a better way forward, you’re in the right place.Copyright 2026 • Motivation To Move, LLC • All Rights Reserved Worldwide.

  • You Have to Really Want It

    You Have to Really Want It
    Jan 14 2026
    Ever notice how the gym fills up in January? How everyone's pumped with fresh motivation? I walked in ready to crush my workout, and some guy was on my machine. My machine. I had my towel ready and everything. We all get fired up with goals and dreams. We get clarity, make plans, feel committed. Then we stumble. We pause. We stop. Twenty years ago, a guy at a convention asked me one question that changed everything: "How bad do you want it?" After coaching thousands of hours, I've learned that's the only question that matters. You can have all the tricks, all the discipline, all the knowledge in the world. But if you don't want it badly enough, nothing else matters. Featured Story I had a dream of becoming a Hollywood director. I wanted to write screenplays and make movies. So I flew to Orlando for a film convention. Paid my $97. Walked into a breakout session on screenplay writing, ready to learn the secret that would make me Hollywood famous. The instructor got on stage and said, "I'm going to teach you everything you need to know." I had my notebook out. This was it. Then he said, "How bad do you want it? Because I can tell you right now that most people in this room don't want it nearly badly enough to make their dreams come true." I didn't believe him. I paid my money. I wanted it bad. But he was right. And that question has followed me through twenty-something thousand coaching hours. Every single time, clients get clarity, get aligned, get pumped up, and then they don't move. They can't get off the starting line. Important Points Wanting something isn't enough. You have to want it so badly that nothing can stop you from actually getting it. Real action requires two things: something that fires you up, and wanting it badly enough to actually do it. The biggest goals and smallest dreams work the same way. Peace matters as much as empires if you want it badly. Memorable Quotes "When you want it badly enough that you'll do anything to get it, you're going to get it. Nothing can stop you." "I wait until I get fired up. If I'm not fired up, I'm not going to do it. You know why? I ain't going to make it." "Life is more important than crossing Ts and dotting Is. You lost me at hello if you're correcting my grammar." Scott's Three-Step Approach First, find something that fires you up. Without inspiration, you won't move forward or you'll quit along the way. Second, wait until you want it badly enough. If it's not burning in you, don't start because you won't finish. Third, go for it no matter what. Be willing to look everyone who doubts you in the eye and keep moving anyway.

  • Don't Break the Chain

    Don't Break the Chain
    Jan 13 2026
    My client Ralph said something that threw me off. He thinks I don't care what anybody thinks about me. That couldn't be further from the truth. I care deeply. Maybe too much sometimes. But I also know that if I keep showing up and doing my thing, the rest takes care of itself. It's not about ignoring feedback. It's about staying consistent with who you are. And that reminded me of a backstage conversation I had with Jerry Seinfeld back in 1986 that changed how I approach everything. His secret? Never break the chain. Featured Story Back in 1986, I got a call from an event promoter. Could I introduce Jerry Seinfeld and do a warmup set? Free dinner, bar tab, and hangout time with Jerry? Obviously yes. The show hadn't hit yet. Jerry was still touring, living on the road, wearing himself out. We had a great conversation backstage. I asked how he manages to keep going. His answer was simple. "I write every day. I put a big red X on the calendar. Eventually there's a chain of X's. My goal is never to break the chain." Years later, I've done 14,000 podcasts using that exact principle. Consistency wins. Important Points • Consistency beats talent when talent doesn't show up - just keep doing it daily and the average people fade away. • You don't need permission or approval to get good at what you do - just show up and put in the repetitions daily. • Your only competition is yesterday's version of yourself - focus there and opportunities will find you naturally. Memorable Quotes • "If you want to be good at anything, you're going to have to do it a lot, truly a ridiculous amount of repetitions." • "Get good at what you do and just keep doing it every single day. You can truly do anything with that approach." • "Average people will fade away. Your chance will come if you show up consistently every day and never break the chain." Scott's Three-Step Approach • Decide what consistency looks like for your goal - three days a week, daily, whatever works, then commit to it. • Show up and do it every single day regardless of how you feel - put the X on the calendar no matter what happens. • Keep the chain going until the compound effect kicks in and average people naturally fade from your competition.

  • Do What Makes Your Heart Sing

    Do What Makes Your Heart Sing
    Jan 12 2026
    Ever get advice that takes years to fully understand? My late wife Cheryl told me something on her deathbed that's finally clicking after 19 years. "Always do what makes your heart sing." I thought I got it. Ran with it. Even did keynotes about it. But I missed the real meaning. It's not about chasing passion or making money. It's about that moment when your heart relaxes and gets excited at the same time. When you feel fully yourself. That feeling is your calling. And when you embrace it, you create permission for others to do the same. Featured Story Nineteen years ago, my first wife Cheryl was facing her terminal diagnosis. The same day I started the commercial version of this podcast. A hundred days later, she was gone. But before she passed, she grabbed my hand and asked if she could give me some advice. Of course I said yes. "Always do what makes your heart sing." I nodded. I thought I understood. But honestly, it took me two decades to really get what she meant. It's not about doing whatever you want. It's about embracing your God-given uniqueness and running with it. When you perform to your talents, even when people don't understand, your heart knows. And that authentic expression creates permission for everyone around you. Important Points • Your heart already knows what makes it sing - you just need to listen for that relaxed excitement feeling daily. • Doing what makes your heart sing isn't selfish - it creates ripple effects that give others permission to do the same. • It's not narcissism - it's embracing your God-given talents and expressing them authentically without apology. Memorable Quotes • "Do what makes your heart sing - embrace your uniqueness and just run with it, unapologetically and courageously." • "When your heart relaxes and gets excited at the exact same time, you've finally found what you're meant to do." • "Perform to your talents and watch people naturally line up wanting what you have - that's your genuine calling." Scott's Three-Step Approach • Find that moment when your heart relaxes and gets excited simultaneously - that's your unmistakable signal here. • Embrace what truly lights you up, even when others don't understand it - their approval was never required anyway. • Keep showing up authentically in that space and watch the ripple effect create permission for everyone around you.
